Displaying product info in customized way

[barfoomoo]

Say I am trying to sell two products toys and home accessories.

Say toy is associated with the following attributes:
1. Toy size.
2. Toy finish.
3. Safety compliance.

While home accessory is associated with the following:
1. Weight.
2. Fabric type.

While trying to enter a toy/home accessory I want the above additional fields to appear in the admin so that entering it is easy. Also, while displaying the product I want special styling to be associated with the attributes. Like, show the fabric type in a highlighted div with a red back ground or something like that.

Is this possible in zen cart and if so can some one pls provide me pointers?

You can create additional product types which will have different information and templates. Look in the tutorials and the wiki for more information on the process. It is not for people unfamiliar with programming, though.

You can do some modificatin of an existing product type's info page display in Catalog > Product Types > edit layout.
